BANFF – It might officially be summer, but Mother Nature has other plans.
Environment Canada issued a snowfall warning for Banff National Park on Sept. 13 warning the mountain community to expect between 10 to 15 centimetres of snow.
The heavy snow is expected to end this afternoon or evening, however higher elevations can expect to see more significant amounts and may pose a hazard to drivers along the Icefields Parkway (Highway 93).
Environment Canada is warning drivers to prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow.
The temperature is expected to hit a high of four degrees celcius today with a low of minus one tonight.
Temperatures will stay below 10 degrees for the rest of the week.
